Worker Visa extended but Work permit about to expire. Need clarification

[immortalbidip]

Hi,

I am from Nepal and currently working for Indian Software firm.
I had a worker visa which was valid till Feb 12, 2012. I had entered Canada on April 02, 2011. I received a work permit which is valid till May 04, 2012.
I left Canada and came back to India on Sept 30th, 2011.

I got the opportunity from the same employer to go to Canada again. But my worker visa had expired. So, i filed for the extension of the worker visa and received it. The new worker visa is valid till Mar 31, 2012.
Now, I may have to travel to Canada on around last week of April, 2012.

I have the below doubts
-Can I enter Canada on last week of April, 2012?
-Till which date i should apply for the extension of the work permit. Can i apply it on May 03 ,2012?
-Can I enter Canada after May 04, 2012(My extended worker is valid till Mar 31,2013 but work permit will expire on May 04, 2012)
-If i can enter Canada after May 04, 2012, how can i get the new work permit? When i first went to Canada, i showed them the letter from consulate and they gave me the work permit. Since my new worker visa was extension of the old visa, I did not receive any letter from the Consulate this time.

Please help me on this.

Thanks,
Bidip

you better ask your employer to have a positive LMO and send it to you right away. You can't work without work permit, TRV is only to enter Canada. The border official may ask you about new LMO when you arrive in the airport.

My work permit is based on the Intra Company Transfer and not LMO.
Since my work permit is expiring on May 04, 2012, I wanted to know how many days before my work permit expires, i have to enter Canada so that my existing work permit can be extended. Can i enter on May 03 and file for the extension. If it is possible then would i be allowed to work after May 04, 2012.

Thanks,
